Took my boat for a diagnosis of water in engine, they said rusted spark plugs so needs whole new engine. I asked what the compression test results where but they said doesn't matter as rust would be in piston etc. Now I know you can save rusted engines etc
My question is what should a new/remanufactured/rebuilt mercruiser 350 mpi cost?
Who is trustworthy?

I live in SoCal temecula but I would drive as far as Lake Havasu for right price and a good shop.
I was quoted 16k for a remanufactured in San Diego.

Somebody on here recently posted about a rebuilt 350 with core for around $8k I believe. Not sure where but I’ll look around when I have a min.

That's what I would assume one cost. 6-10k. 16k seems expensive.

Earlier this year I did 3 small block dirt track race engines for roughly $6-$7K each
